Heterostructures of alloyed composites,comprising heterogeneous domains with dramatically different constitutive properties,hold remarkable potential to expand the realm of material design systems and resolve the trade-off between strength and ductility.This study introduces an innovative materials de-sign method for synthesizing gradient pseudo-precipitates heterostructure(GPHS)in non-heat-treatable Al-2.5%Mg alloys.Utilizing cost-effective mild steel as both the diffusion source and protective layer,this heterostructure is achieved through pin-less friction stir-assisted cyclic localized deformation pro-cess.Exogenous Fe atoms diffuse across the interface by friction stir-induced heat conduction,forming Fe-Al second-phase particles in the Al alloy matrix.A rapid inter-diffusion mechanism is activated in conjunction with dense dislocation walls,grain boundaries,and sub-structures,resulting in the forma-tion of pseudo-precipitates.These pseudo-precipitates are ultimately dispersed in a gradient distribution throughout the entire thickness of the Al alloy matrix induced by localized incremental deformation.The GPHSed Al-2.5%Mg alloy exhibits an enhanced synergy of strength and ductility,with a uniform elonga-tion increase from 11%to 21.2%,while maintaining the strength.Multiple strengthening and hardening mechanisms,such as solid solution strengthening,dislocation hardening,and second phase strengthen-ing,work synergistically to promote mechanical performance.Notably,the hetero-deformation between hard pseudo-precipitates and soft Al alloy matrix induces additional strain hardening,leading to high ductility.This work provides a fresh perspective on the design and fabrication of high-performance alloys with advanced heterostructures,especially for non-heat-treatable alloys.
